I grew up in a family of Boxers. I was taught by my father since the age of seven. My second and final boxing coaches were the great Don Conly and Robert Garcia who coached World Champions and one Bronze Medalist Olympian.

Philosophy:

My philosophy is, Defense is everything. I believe in establishing a strong foundation by learning the key fundamentals and basics of boxing. I strongly believe that boxers grow from these principals. Through basics and drills, muscle memory is established allowing boxers to react instinctively rather than to think and brawl.
